Background
Taylor Lautner's redcarpet style
Taylor Daniel Lautner was born on February 11, 1992 to Deborah and Daniel Lautner. He grew up in Hudsonville, Michigan, and has a younger sister Makena. When Taylor was six he went into karate and a year later was taking part in the national karate tournament where he met Michael Chaturantabut aka Mike Chat (Blue Ranger in Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue), founder of extreme martial arts. Chat was training Lautner for several years with Taylor becoming the No. 1 martial artist in his category according to the American Sports Karate Association by the age of 11. Besides taking a particular interest in martial arts, young Taylor Lautner was also taking hip hop and jazz classes as well as playing for the school’s football and basketball teams.
But for his coach Mike Chat, Tay would have probably never tried his hand at acting. Chat suggeded he audition for movie roles and get an agent. By the age of 10 the Lautner family had permanently moved to Santa Clarita, California, so that Taylor could be closer to the movie industry and audition for TV/ movie roles and commercials on regular basis.
Juggling school and career wasn’t an easy thing to do and Taylor Lautner says he was bullied at school for being an aspiring actor: “I was never extremely confident. Because I was an actor when I was in school, there was a little bullying going on. I just had to tell myself I can’t let this get to me. This is what I love to do. And I’m going to continue doing it.”
Getting famous
Taylor’s first ever audition was for a Burger King commercial. And though he didn’t get the part he never gave up his career plans assuring his parents acting was exactly the thing he wanted to in his life. From 2001 to 2005 Taylor got small parts in TV shows, movies and commercials, like made-for-television film Shadow Fury, The Bernie Mac Show, My Wife and Kids, Summerland, as well as landed his voice for Danny Phantom, Duck Dodgers, What’s New, Scooby-Doo?, and a Rugrats Go Wild commercial. In 2005 he appeared in Cheaper by the Dozen 2 before finally landing the first starring role in The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl in 3-D. Though slammed by critics, the movie brought him his first award nomination at the 2006 Young Artist Awards.
According to the Rolling Stone, Taylor’s early roles were “the popular kid, jock, or bully” mentioning his other projects like He’s a Bully, Charlie Brown and My Own Worst Enemy (2008).
